Passionate About:

I love the world. Since I was young, I've been traveling around the world, specifically between my two homes of America and Peru. Since, I traveled to different parts of Central and South America, and Europe. As I grew older, I realized humanitarian and non-profit work around the world is my passion. Being able to envelop myself in new cultures, lands, languages, foods and so on, is something that makes me feel full, it makes me feel infinite. Being able to help other communities around the world, because everyone deserves happy and healthy lives, is what I want to do with my life. I will make an impact on this world.

Volunteer Activity Message

Global Brigades offers 7-9 day Medical Brigades throughout the year in Honduras, Panama and Nicaragua. During a Medical Brigade, volunteers have the opportunity to take vitals and patient history in triage, shadow licensed doctors in medical consultations, and assist in a pharmacy under the direction of licensed pharmacists. Each of our partner communities receives a brigade approximately twice a year. Between brigades, our in-country team maintains relationships with the communities to provide follow-up and to conduct Community Health Worker (CHW) trainings to empower local leaders to sustain a consistent level of healthcare. Electronic patient records are collected for future visitations and to monitor overall community health trends.

Saying "Matthew - so glad you're doing this. Can't wait to compare notes from my trip to Nicaragua in 1988. If you can take a break be sure to go see the volcanic crater lakes (greater buoyancy!) and the inland sharks (only place in the world)!"
